ISLAMABAD: The National Highway Authority (NHA) will build 265km-long four-lane Peshawar-Kabul Motorway, said an NHA official.
The official said that the land acquisition process will be initiated after the finalisation of alignment. He said that the motorway project will not only improve connectivity between the two neighbours and Central Asian States but would also bring economic prosperity in the adjacent areas.
The motorway will connect Peshawar with Afghan capital Kabul, via Jalalabad and Torkham. The motorway, he said, would be divided into three parts, 50 km long Peshawar-Torkham, 76km Torkham-Jalalabad and 139km Jalalabad-Kabul sections.
